Thoughts on SMRs (OKLO)
Hi all, curious to see what the majority think of SMRs and companies such as OKLO. My YTD has been over 100% so far and on the OKLOSTOCK sub it seems like a casino where everyone’s too emotionally invested. I wrote a respectable post to get people to entertain my …
Right now does it make more sense to put money into VOO or indiv big tech stocks that have fallen much further?
I know that buying the overall market is less risky than buying individual stocks. But given that these big tech stocks are down so much more than all-time highs compared to the overall market, is it better to buy those stocks right now? And to wait for a bigger overall …
Did you buy anything today? if so, what?
I bought a little bit of MSFT, GOOG, VOO, JPM, AMZN. Curious what others bought, if anything? Are you buying little at a time on the way down or just holding out? I am tempted to wait and wait (As my luck is terrible) and will hate myself if the …
Trump’s false claims of a successful negotiation have masked an epic collapse
Recently, there's been something that people are treating as a joke, but it's actually quite suspicious. Trump said that due to progress in negotiations with Iran, the planned military strike was delayed for five days. But Iran immediately contradicted him, saying no such talks had taken place. What’s going on …
Shifting to European self-sufficiency?
I’ve had a strong focus on defense since the war in Ukraine started, around 35 % of my total holdings, with the rest in stable large-cap companies and global index funds.

Who's holding the bag from 2025 highs?
Many were warned on here the bottom was about to fall out. Now meta is back where it belongs near liberation day lows. AI capex slop ruining the economy. We haven't even seen what happens when US defaults. Now with no tariff revenue and another forever war, surely the US …
Am I just stupid here or do I just not care enough?
[](https://www.reddit.com/r/FinancialCareers/?f=flair_name%3A%22Off%20Topic%20%2F%20Other%22)So I don't have anything really in the stock market. Sometimes its neat to look at the line sink or rise a bunch but other than that, nothing. Ok. good. I also know people who talk about stocks and I just sometimes feel as if I don't really get it? …
Just zoom out bro
Remember when every smart ass bogleheader was making fun of people for selling because the market barely dropped 1-2%? How do you know when to sell? The downfall of American exceptionalism which the S&P represents. Remember bogleheaders like to tell you to zoom out. They don’t even realize that the …
What are you buying to hedge against a long term war in Iran?
I added gold, thinking about added BNO and sold it too soon unfortunately, but overall, portfolio is down considerably this quarter. It’s unsettling and I don’t see how this conflict ends anytime soon. Any thoughts appreciated; save the sarcastic posts please.
